Increasing Availability and Use of CSA Evidence

Our Evidence, Learning and Influencing activity aims to strengthen the base of CSA evidence and its application. We believe that by improving stakeholders’ access to relevant research and evidence, we can facilitate evidenced-based programming that better supports the uptake of CSA by smallholder farmers.

We recognise the significant contributions of those operating in this space already and seek to support and leverage existing activities. Our work aims to fill some gaps in research evidence on selected topics which are important for improving the adoption of CSA and to encourage the greater use of relevant evidence – from across the CSA community – to inform decisions, investments and behaviour.
